SUMMARY:Where is Minnesota's Economy Going?
DESCRIPTION:Our speaker will discuss the role of public and private investments and its effect on driving our economy. Synopsis\; The theory of economic growth tells us that greater capital not only grows economies but also wages\, particularly when capital rises at a faster rate than employment.  We begin with a history of employment\, wages and output in Minnesota during and after the Great Recession.  We then consider two kinds of investment:  Investment in equipment and structures for private firms and investment in public infrastructure.  How does this cause our growth rate to change in Minnesota?  We conclude with a projection of investment for 2015 and the implication for growth of the Minnesota economy.\n\n\n\nPresenter: Professor King Banaian is a professor in the Department of Economics at St. Cloud State University.  He is currently serving as interim dean of the School of Public Affairs Research Institute at SCSU.  He holds a Ph.D. in economics from the Claremont Graduate School.  He has consulted at central banks and ministries of finance on 3 continents since 1993. His academic fields of expertise are monetary policy and political economy. He is a senior fellow at the Center of the American Experiment. King was state representative in the Minnesota House for District 15B\, 2011-13.  He is also host of the King Banaian Show on Business1570 KYCR broadcast in Minneapolis\, and co-author of the St. Cloud Quarterly Business Report.
